    Re: IGN gave it a 8.9

    I dunno guys. As i was reading this review it just didnt seem like IGN is super excited about the game. The All-Star Weekend I LOVE but other than that. I think Marv Albert's announcing is quite annoying and he comments only on shots and blocks, not any passes our anything. I also liek the oversees scouting and that you can bring in a rookie to play against an existing player. Other than that I dont think its worth 20 bucks more than 2k5. Im gunna wait to read the 2k5 review and if i have a good feeling wiht it im going with that

          I'm amazed at how many people get hyped over IGN Reviews. I swear if IGN started offering a service were you had the option to see a review 2 days early but you had to pay $2 some people would actually bite on that offer.

          IGN reviews rarely mention any bugs or huge problems in sport games. The Live review last year didn't even mention anything about the double team logic flaw.

              Live was a must buy, but I'll probably sit back and wait for some comparisons with ESPN first now.
              I agree.

              Nobody seems to notice when the AI cheats when you have a big lead? I hope it isn't in this year's game.

                          last year ign gave 2k5 a rating of 9+ which we all know was totally false. At best it deserves a 7.5 to 8.2 rating. They rate their games poorly, so i suggest you guys let the people at os give their impressions. (I'm not saying live is worse than what they rated it, because it could actually be better, but i'm just warning you guys.)
                          Just wait till Arsenal moves into Emirates Stadium.

                              I always take IGNs reviews with a grain of salt, I seriously think they play the game for like 2 hours max. then go to lunch at the local McDonalds for another 2 hours then come back into the office and write their half-arsed reviews for games. IMO Steve's review will be the one to read, nothing can beat a review from someone who is truely passionate about their sport sims.
